    It is best suited for Server Environments and Enterprises which have their IT infrastructure spread over a wide and different geographical location because since it is cloud based, monotoring can be be done from a single interface, it even comes with a mobile app so you dont allways have to be in fron of your laptop or Dasboard Screen to be able to do helth check or to have visibilty on occurences in the environment.

    I think PagerDuty works great for medical practices. I have used other platforms through other companies, and PagerDuty is by far the best platform. It is because of the different features it has to communicate to other staff members how the call is being handled. It is easy to learn how to use.

    Pros
    ManageEngine, A Div of Zoho Corporation Pvt Ltd
    • It monitors your networks, server and application infrastructure availability and health.
    • It also intergrates with third party tools by raising tickets and incidents for the service desk.
    • The fact that it is cloud based allows monitoring from one interface accross large Enterprises which have their infrastructure spread ccross te globe.

    • Alerting notifications is its best attribute; it will continue to make contact until the alert is acknowledged by a user.
    • The calendar view provides valuable information regarding who is on call by the team and their full contact information.
    • The application also lets you initiate a tech bridge meeting instantly and notifies all on-call users.

    Cons
    ManageEngine, A Div of Zoho Corporation Pvt Ltd
    • It seems it was mainly designed for server environments, if applied to serverless environments the pricis will not be justified.
    • It picks up on alerts and event logs but does not pick up on critical services especially pn Microsoft servers which may have stopped.
    • Installation and configuration was a challenge and we finally got close to the desired results through trial and error.

    • When getting a phone call, PagerDuty doesn't seem to allow acknowledgments of alerts through the phone, which it says it does. I constantly receive a message that it was updated by another person - when in reality, it wasn't.
    • Smarter notifications. If an alert was snoozed for a time, when it comes back, it sends out another alert. It should, I think, send a message asking if the alert is still an issue and give the option to close.
    • Make schedule changes more intuitive.
    • One button to acknowledge and close an alert.

    They have been rock solid for us thus far and are not very expensive and to be honest no time to evaluate other software at this point.

    Usability
    ManageEngine, A Div of Zoho Corporation Pvt Ltd
    The user interface is extremelely user friendly despite the challenges we experienced during the setup stages, The real time monitoring is also worth complimenting, its like having a birds-eye view of your whole infrustructure and trust me our infrastructure is massive, spreading accross 3 continents. Aided with the mobile app, you can monitor your environment from almost anywhere at anytime. It allows for some degree of customisation so you can tune it to meet your specific needs.

    The UI is more complex than I would like. Part of the challenge is that most users use PagerDuty infrequently; I don't remember how I changed a policy last time. Another part of the challenge is that some users expect alerting to be a trivial feature, and are reluctant to invest any time in reading the documentation.

    When I setup notifications to PD thru the Python API I was impressed with the ease with which I could set up the software/service.

    I have not use the 2 technologies for as long as I have used PagerDuty but in my opinion PagerDuty makes things a lot easier. The other tools got the job done and got alerts out but PagerDuty just seemed to make the setup for on-call alert schedules and integrations easier than the others. This isn't to say the others are difficult, just that PagerDuty was slightly better. I also have noticed that more tools have options to integrate to PagerDuty over the other tools.

    Return on Investment
    ManageEngine, A Div of Zoho Corporation Pvt Ltd
    • Its ability to intergrate with ticket logging systems certainly cuts the need for human resources to manually do health checks and lod tickets with service desk against the alerts raised.
    • Once set up, the dashboards are easy to understand even for non technical staff so there isnt need for too much to be invested in training.
    • It allows for customisation to suit our organisations specific business objectives.
